Activity C:
Level Up!
Directions:
Read and analyze the given situation. Then answer the questions below.
A teacher drew a number line on the board and named some points on it.
The teacher then asked the class to list all the rays in the figure. A student
answered 30 rays in all and the teacher said it was correct. How many points were
named in the figure.
1. Can you name a ray using 3 points?
2. How many points are needed to form a ray?
3. What is the value of r in the permutation of n taken r in the given
situation?
4. What mathematics concept will be used to determine the number of rays
in P(n, r) if the value of n is already identified?
5. How many points (n) were named in the figure?
